Abstract

This study explored regional differences in personality profiles among the Democratic, Republican, and swing states. Using cluster analyses, results revealed that while all regions shared similar patterns of personality profiles (e.g., well-adaptive individuals), Democratic and Republican regions also showed unique personality profile patterns (e.g., liberal vs. conservatives).
